In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, milk, and cocoa powder.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir frequently until the mixture comes to a rolling boil. Allow it to boil for 1 minute while continuing to stir.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and quickly stir in the peanut butter, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth and well combined.
Add the quick-cooking oats to the mixture and stir until the oats are fully coated and evenly mixed.
Using a spoon or a cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
Allow the drops to cool and set at room temperature for about 30 minutes or place them in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to speed up the setting process.
Once set, store the peanut butter chocolate drops in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week, or in the refrigerator for longer freshness.
